Trump Appoints Former Rubio Critic Tammy Bruce as State Department Spokesperson

Bruce, a Fox News contributor with a history of inflammatory comments, previously mocked Rubio, Trump's nominee for Secretary of State.

Tammy Bruce, a conservative Fox News contributor, has been named as the spokesperson for the U.S. Department of State by President-elect Donald Trump.
Bruce has a documented history of criticizing Marco Rubio, Trump's nominee for Secretary of State, including repeatedly mocking him during the 2016 presidential primary.
In past social media posts, Bruce referred to Rubio as 'Little Marco,' accused him of being an establishment insider, and dismissed him as inexperienced and irrelevant.
Bruce has expressed enthusiasm for the role despite her prior remarks, stating she is 'thrilled' to work alongside Rubio in the incoming administration.
Her appointment highlights ongoing tensions between the traditional conservative and MAGA factions within the Republican Party.
